From the 2013 Reds vs Waratahs Game Thread:
Callipygous must be the Foxsports word of the day.
- July 13 2013

All was revealed on 702 ABC breakfast show yesterday as I drove to the Salt Mines.

Kearns had heard Adam Spencer use the word previously on 702 Breakfast and decided to weave it in to his commentary.

Kafe was in on the setup, but Greg Clarke was not, and in the commentary box he was apparently looking very perplexed when the two fired it up.

Interesting that a caller rang in at the of the segment and claimed the word is pronouncificated Kill -ip - i -giss as per Greek origins and not Kel-e-pay-jiss as Spencer and Kearns/Kafe pronounced it.

Wayne Gunston’s Guide to $20 Words.

Gidday, tatterdemalion c**ts!

Welcome to Wayne Gunston’s Guide to $20 Words.


hair.jpg

Me, Wayne, your favourite
lalochezian callipygous bastard.
I know all the $20 words. I bought
the whole fuckin lot for 50 bucks
at a garage sale.

Now then, let’s get down to business. How many $20 words do you know? Four? Sorry smartarse, but “supercilious” is no longer a $20 word. It’s a $5 word at best. So now you only know three $20 words. Callipygous and two others. Pathetic. You thick bastard. There’s only so many times you, the aspiring writer, can drop “mellifluous”, “callipygous” and that one other flash harry word into your stunted, shithouse prose before the ruse is well and truly up.

That’s where I come in. Once your cheque’s cleared, my Wayne Gunston’s Guide to $20 Words will show you exactly where and when to use $20 words.

Not only will my Guide to $20 Words educate you about ALL the $20 words it will also “troubleshoot” those words that are often mistaken for being $20 words but are in fact NOT $20 words.

Here is a brief sample list of just some of the commonly mistaken $20 words as exposed by Wayne Gunston’s Guide to $20 Words.

* Wheelbarrow (quite a long word, hence the confusion. NOT a $20 word)
* Elephant (elephants are big which makes people think the word is long and confusing but at a paltry 7 letters it’s not overly long)
* Psychedelic (nothing about a hippie is worth $20 bucks)

Pay NOW to get the full list of NOT $20 words!

Just $850.99 in 8 easy instalments.

You would not last long in an anechoic chamber https://edition.cnn.com/style/article/anechoic-chamber-worlds-quietest-room/index.html
"The longest continuous time anyone has spent inside the chamber is about 55 minutes," confirmed Gopal at Microsoft.
"I have noticed that there are several folks who can stay inside for 30 minutes or so. But others have asked to go out within the first few seconds."
